God’s Addressbook Includes Hope « Before Morning Breaks

I’ve had my share of sleepless nights recently . . . nice to run across this from Barb Froman (that’s the name on the blog. If I got it wrong Barb, please correct me). Anyway, it’s good for perspective.

Remember this very important fact on those sleepless and seemingly hopeless nights: No matter what, the Sun’s coming up tomorrow. A new day . . . a new hope.

Weathering The Storm

If you are going through something right now, something that scares you, here’s the main thing you need to know: God is with you, right now, right in the midst of it. Now, if you’re from the “I expect God to fix this situation to my satisfaction, and RIGHT NOW!” mindset, well, you’ll probably be disappointed. It is through tough times that God molds us, and the more rigid and close-minded we are, the more likely that the molding must be done with a hammer and chisel as opposed to the gentler molding of pliable clay.

Maybe GOD is Trying to Tell Us Something

It’s been quite a while since I’ve had any memorable dreams (of either the conscious or subconscious kind). It’s been even longer since I dared to share any of my dreams with anyone other than my wife or a close friend. But I had such a disturbing dream early this morning that I couldn’t shake it even after I awoke. And I felt led to share it with those of you who will read this blog. So, here goes.

“Blessed Are The Pure In Heart . . .”

To me, it’s a perfect metaphor for this entire project. Is that REALLY God’s face in the photo? Is the book REALLY “A Message From God” as it claims to be, or is it the ramblings of religious nutjob? There are no clear-cut answers to either of those questions. Ultimately, what it all means depends upon what possibilities you’re open to. That’s why they call it “faith.”

Me? I’m trying to keep a pure heart. I like feeling like I can actually see God. Makes me feel good.

  1. Thanks Lee for the shoutout. I still have sleepless nights, but I try to use them to learn how to be still and wait.
    Thanks for the encouragement. It’s comforting to know that there are others on the journey too.
